It's an RCA Radiola model 60
It's called a Gabel Entertainer... ;).

I did some quick research. That beautifully complicated machine must give you much joy!

Here is one of me and my Columbia AH at a little show my chapter of MBSI put on up at The Villages, Florida, in December 2013. Hundreds of people came through and it was a lot of fun. Here is a link about that as well. As you'll see, another member also brought phonographs.

Really nice to get a glimpse of who's behind the scenes. As my cat isn't also good with taking pictures, I simply went for a selfie (how I dislike this hipster term... :roll:)

That is a Gabel Automatic Entertainer, 1909 model. I was actually demonstrating this machine and in the photo I'm pointing to the spinning governor which controls how fast the record is changed. The radio is an RCA Radiola 60 with a Pathé Loud Speaker on top of it. The thing behind me is a Seeburg Playboy remote selector and speaker from about 1941. Cheers!

You look right out of the Phonographic era! You should change that pic to B&W! Love it!

Thank, m8. History is my thing, I go back to the old ways as much as practical and possible.
